Low-Voltage Budget Calculator

Ballpark your low-voltage budget in seconds

Planning a multifamily or affordable-housing build? Pick the systems you need and we'll estimate a budgeting range — structured cabling, WiFi, surveillance, door access, and fire & life safety — scaled by unit count and building type. Use it for early pro-formas; a site walk produces the firm number.

Estimated project budget
$87,400 – $192,280
$1,092 – $2,403 per unit · 80 units

Range reflects building type, unit count efficiencies, and the systems you selected. Site conditions, finishes, redundancy, and AHJ requirements move the final number.

Estimates are planning-level ranges based on BUILDLAB's installed cost-per-unit experience on California multifamily and affordable-housing projects. They are not a quote. Actual pricing depends on drawings, site conditions, product selection, prevailing-wage requirements, and the authority having jurisdiction. BUILDLAB designs and installs all of these systems coordinated across every trade.
